Merle Haggard performs The Running Kind on Prime Time Country hosted by Bob Eubanks chords
Start Jamming...
Home was never home to me [C] at any time.
[D] Every front door found me hoping I would find the back door open.
There just had to be an exit [G] for the running cow.
Within me there's a prison surrounding me alone.
As real as any downtown with [C] its walls of stone.
[D] I know running's not the answer.
Oh, but running's been my nature.
And the part of me that keeps me [G] moving on.
I was born the running kind.
But leaving always on my mind.
Home was never home [A] to me [C] at any time.
[A] Every front door found me hoping [D] I would find the back door [A] open.
There just [D] had to be an exit [G] for the running kind.
Alright, Joe.

[D] Hi.

[D] There just had to be an exit [G] for the running kind.
